September boating

[Bill_AirJunky]

We got out today for another awesome day in October. It was 69F air with 62F water and nothing but sun and glass. What a great day. After spending the afternoon on the river we all hit Red Robin - Peach Iced Tea and a Guacamole Burger. Great day!

Ha! Same temps here too. Afterwards it was ribs & 'ritas at Texas Roadhouse!

Couldn't put a crew together tonight, but definitely going out tomorrow night.

Went out in the downpour last weekend, hooray for heated garages. They must be getting ready to drop the water level at Fern Ridge because they were pulling sail boats out left and right last weekend.

We are trying a camping and boating trip next week - Thursday - Saturday at Dale Hollow.

Temps supposed to be 40 - 70. We may wimp out and rent a camping cabin instead of the tent, but the lake should be awesome and quiet, especially on the week days.

How can you drop the water for something that is only 3 feet deep to begin with?.....

I can't believe you went out in the rain last weekend! It was steady rain (not the usual Oregon mist) all day long!

We paddled a couple miles of the Spokane River east of downtown this evening. A ton pf planes, trains & automobiles in that part of town (Felts field, the main train line & 5:00 traffic on Argonne), but the river was GLASSSSSSS

That's what our lake looked like this morning. Water is still hovering around 70° but the air was only 56° at 8:00 AM. Glass from 8:00 - 10:45. No other boats out. No tubers!!!

[Sixball]

Been working all day and am now trying to get a crew to go take some runs. 35 air when I got up 8:00am. One big fog bank over the lake!

[REW]

Heading out tomorrow, haven't seen a tuber in a while, last week we had the river section to ourselves except that other Malibu.

That is enviously nice. Maybe I should head to Australia.

[Sixball]

We got out and it was very very good. Air 58 Water 58.

[Bill_AirJunky]

..... haven't seen a tuber in a while

Isn't that the BEST?!

Had to spend most of the day workin on the house. But managed to get out for a run late this afternoon. 74 degree air, 58 degree water. And like 2 other boat out..... both fishermen.

We got out today. Most likely the last time before we put her up for winter.

About air temp 60 when we got there, water temp 57. Ooooonly boat out there for a while. By the time we left the air was 70, and the water had warmed 1 degree.

Counted a dozen boats in the area by then. I think everybody knew this was gonna be the last nice day we have before it starts dumpin snow.

Boat is being put away Tuesday. Hard to get a crew motivated to go out, even though its been glass with 70 air / 60 water. 95hrs for the season and great year overall!!

[mroyce]

Forecast tomorrow 87 with water about 73 here in Tulsa. Enjoying these late fall days.

[Green_Giant]

Sets tomorrow at sun up, first day into the 30's so we should be all alone!!!

[martinarcher]

Some of you guys are putting the boats away with the water temp still above 60? What's up with that! We're planning on heading out tomorrow and it's in the 50's. No ice yet.

Forcast is for high 50s/low 60s tomorrow. I have more work to do on the house..... and a page out to a few guys to go out & ride as time permits.

It's a great time to be on the water!!

[Sixball]

[Malibuzer]

All these pictures make me envious!!! But I am 11 hours away from home and I get a call from home, a bunch of friends got together and winterized their boats today. They even went and took mine and winterized it for me. And then they put it back in my garage.

Nice to know that you have good friends. Going to be a looooonnng winter!!
